I've tried the L'Oreal foundation and have found that lasts all day I'm not sure how extensive the colour range is however.  Take a little pot into the shop and pop in a little of the tester.

I use mineral foundation and it lasts me all day.  I'm guessing you moisturise first?  A good base of moisturiser helps it stay.  I use Avon which has a good range, especially if you're pale - I use the palest shade, called Ivory, and it's an almost perfect match

I use Avon but the Ivory is to pale in the powder and the Ivory in the liquid is darker but together they work pretty good and make my colour how strange.

I 've used a brand called Lily Lolo online- and the good thing is that you can order sample pots of different colours for only about £1 - which is good for testing suitable shades and their coverage etc. I really liked the products, but since Ive got very oily skin, I found it just didnt have lastability for me personally.  Nice stuff though- and a pretty good range of colours too!
